throwing around the idea of doing a sedan conversion... recently received a few quotes... for those who have done it, would you do it again? was it worth it? does it impact the resale value enough to justify the conversion?
roughly how much can one expect to pay for just bodyshop hours alone (outside of parts)???
any photos? any recommendations on places in the nyc area to have it done???

been searching the archives and the photos i have seen, pretty much give me reason to do it, but there are some things that are still holding me back...

any thoughts or insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

All that money and know one will pay you extra for it.

Super hot... but like anything, you'll NEVER get the money back out of it.

Your car would definitely fetch a good price. Don't underestimate enthusiasts.

I do agree that it might not be worth it when you consider the cost of the conversion to what you'd get for the car.

I'm having a hard time *not* doing it, though. The only thing holding me back is the mileage on my car. I'd be tempted to pick up a lower mileage S4 and go to town, though.

I still love your car, BTW.

I forget which issue, but I think it was summer or fall. Greg Heyman's shop did the work, I think. Huge investment -- tens of thousands -- but it came out beautifully.

I believe he got less then he paid (I believe) and that's after spending $$ on it after he got it

No but would trade you for a "rare" Cactus for your "pimped ride"

tuned, change interior and a few other things. I know the new owner of the car and for what he paid, it was a steal.

would appreciate the work...

damn. thats discouraging to hear (read).

so then option b. is leave it stock body, and then in about a year go with e46 m3.
